On Monday evening, a man allegedly pushed and attempted to punch a firefighter who asked him to leave his home in the 37700 block of Tassajara Road because of safety concerns, sheriff's officials said.

The man, later identified as 63-year-old Jack West, was arrested on suspicion of battery and booked into county jail, according to the sheriff's office.

Fire officials initially said 10 homes were destroyed in the fire, but damage inspection personnel on the site Monday determined that the blaze destroyed 11 homes and seven outbuildings and damaged one other home, fire officials said.

Road closures remain in place at Cachagua Road at Madrone Road, Poppy Tree Lane at Buckeye Road, Tassajara Road east of Buckeye Road and Tassajara Road south of East Carmel Valley Road, they said.

One-way traffic control is in place at East Carmel Valley Road south of Tassajara Road because of fire equipment blocking the roadway, according to fire officials.

About 20 miles away, the Laureles Fire that burned 95 acres started around 3:30 p.m. Saturday at the Laureles Grade and state Highway 68, fire officials said. As of Tuesday morning, the fire was fully contained, they said.
